Fire Crackers

Firecrackers are festive explosives commonly used in celebrations and events worldwide. Typically composed of paper cylinders filled with pyrotechnic compounds, firecrackers ignite to produce vibrant visual and auditory displays. The core components include gunpowder, metals, and oxidizers, with variations in composition determining the specific effects. Upon ignition, the gunpowder rapidly burns, creating expanding gases that result in a loud bang. Different metals within the firecracker create distinctive colors when heated, contributing to the visual spectacle. These colorful bursts of light and sharp sounds make firecrackers a prominent feature of various cultural festivities, such as New Year’s Eve, Diwali, and the Fourth of July.
